My Coding Journey - First Real Project Feedback Request

So I finally pushed my debut web project live at https://aimrksm.org/ and I'm genuinely terrified about what people will think. This IPLwin thing has been consuming my evenings for the past few months and I've reached that point where I need outside perspectives before I lose my mind.

Tech stack-wise, I kept things relatively simple - built most of it with plain JavaScript and sprinkled in some Vue.js components where I needed reactivity. Backend is running on Flask because Python felt more comfortable than jumping straight into something like Django. Went with PostgreSQL for data storage since everyone kept saying it's more robust than MySQL.

The visual design is probably my biggest anxiety point right now. I was aiming for something clean and professional but I'm worried it just looks bland and forgettable. Spent way too many hours obsessing over button styles and spacing, and now I can't even tell if the color palette works or if it's just boring.

Navigation structure seemed logical when I was building it, but now I'm wondering if users will actually understand how to move around the site. The menu hierarchy made sense in my wireframes but real-world usage might be completely different.

I'm also stressing about performance optimization. Tried to compress images and minimize HTTP requests, but the loading speed still feels sluggish compared to sites I actually enjoy using. Maybe my hosting choice was too budget-friendly?

The whole authentication flow is another source of sleepless nights. Is the signup process too complicated? Too simple? Are there obvious security holes I'm missing?

Would really love some honest feedback from people who weren't involved in building this thing. What feels broken or confusing? Does it look like amateur hour or is there potential here worth developing further?
